July nineteen fifty-four
A crowded terminal at Haneda's door
He stepped off the plane with a confident stride
Secrets of a world that he couldn't hide
He handed his passport the officer stared
A country named Taured but nobody cared
It's right next to France he pointed and said
The map showed Andorra and his face turned red

Hold up now
Where's the line between truth and doubt
Hold up now
Tell me what's this all about

Oh the man from Taured where do you belong
A glitch in the matrix a traveler gone
Did you slip through the fabric of space and of time
From a parallel world that was yours and is mine
You showed us your stamps you showed us your gold
But your country is a story that never was told

They took him away to a room in the sky
Guards at the door but nobody knows why
They checked all his papers they called up his bank
The companies vanished his history sank
He swore it was real he'd been here before
For thousands of years his homeland was lore
The ink on the pages began to erase
A stranger trapped in a misplaced place

Hold up now
Every door they open closes down
Hold up now
Til he's nowhere to be found

Oh the man from Taured where do you belong
A glitch in the matrix a traveler gone
Did you slip through the fabric of space and of time
From a parallel world that was yours and is mine
You showed us your stamps you showed us your gold
But your country is a story that never was told

The Sun went down on the Tokyo night
Locked in the room out of reach out of sight
But when morning came and they opened the door
His luggage was gone he was there no more
No window was open no footsteps were found
Just an empty room on the upper ground
Hoo hoo hoo
Hoo hoo hoo hoo

Oh, the man from Taured where do you belong
A glitch in the matrix a traveler gone
Did you slip through the fabric of space and of time
From a parallel world that was yours and is mine
You showed us your stamps you showed us your gold
But your country is a story that never was told

Did you go back home
Or are you still wandering alone
Taured Taured
A ghost in the terminal
Taured Taured
Tell me where did you go
Taured Taured
Hoo
